It's time to welcome Lord Ganesh into our homes again! However like every year, this celebration also calls for an eco-friendly Ganpati celebration that acknowledges every Mumbaikar's determination to enjoy the 10-day festival with genuine consideration towards nature.
While the idols made of POP are attractive, inexpensive, and easy to make, the eco-friendly ones are beneficial for the environment as a whole.
To preserve our ecology, The Free Press Journal (FPJ), which has a legacy of over 96 years, appeals to its readers to have an eco-friendly Ganesh celebration.
We are running a contest among our readers to promote eco-friendly Ganesh Chaturthi festivities (including idol, decoration, and celebrations) that prioritize environmental consciousness.
